If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet [ Upstream commit 15ecbe94a45ef88491ca459b26efdd02f91edb6d ] Larry Brakmo proposal ( https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/935233/ tcp: force cwnd at least 2 in tcp_cwnd_reduction) made us rethink about our recent patch removing ~16 quick acks after ECN events. tcp_enter_quickack_mode(sk, 1) makes sure one immediate ack is sent, but in the case the sender cwnd was lowered to 1, we do not want to have a delayed ack for the next packet we will receive.
